Fry’s Bargain Meal of the Week: Steak Fajitas

Melissa — Fri, 17 Jul 2009 21:32:31 +0000

I am excited to be contributing to the Bargain Meal of the Week at $5 Dinners (Definitely a great site to check out)! If you are visiting from $5 Dinners, Welcome!, and I hope you enjoy the meal I have planned.

Steak is on sale at Fry’s this week, and since we love Mexican food, I thought this sounded good:

Steak Fajitas (recipe found at Allrecipes.com)

Ingredients:

Boneless Beef Chuck Steak $1.88 lb

Yellow Onion $.50

Fresh Lime $.50

Red Bell Pepper $1.00

Sargento Cheese $1.39
-$.40/1 (4/19 SS) = $.59 each

Daisy Sour Cream $1.49
-$.50/1 (5/31 RP) = $.49 each

Corn Tortillas $.99 (cheaper and lower calorie than flour)

=oop $5.95 for 4 servings

Some suggestions that I would make with the recipe, grill the steak instead of frying to reduce the heat in your house in the summer (and to get a great grill flavor!). Add fresh jalapenos in onion, bell pepper mixture to give some extra kick.

Also, you could serve this with Fresh Jalapeno Poppers as the appetizer.
